Access built-in metrics in Azure IoT Edge

Applies to: IoT Edge 1.5 checkmark IoT Edge 1.5 IoT Edge 1.4 checkmark IoT Edge 1.4

Important

IoT Edge 1.5 LTS and IoT Edge 1.4 LTS are supported releases. IoT Edge 1.4 LTS is end of life on November 12, 2024. If you are on an earlier release, see Update IoT Edge.

The IoT Edge runtime components, IoT Edge hub, and IoT Edge agent, produce built-in metrics in the Prometheus exposition format. Access these metrics remotely to monitor and understand the health of an IoT Edge device.

You can use your own solution to access these metrics. Or, you can use the metrics-collector module, which handles collecting the built-in metrics and sending them to Azure Monitor or Azure IoT Hub. For more information, see Collect and transport metrics.

Metrics are automatically exposed by default on port 9600 of the edgeHub and edgeAgent modules (http://edgeHub:9600/metrics and http://edgeAgent:9600/metrics). They aren't port mapped to the host by default.

Access metrics from the host by exposing and mapping the metrics port from the module's createOptions. The example below maps the default metrics port to port 9601 on the host:

{
  "ExposedPorts": {
    "9600/tcp": {}
  },
  "HostConfig": {
    "PortBindings": {
      "9600/tcp": [
        {
          "HostPort": "9601"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Choose different and unique host port numbers if you are mapping both the edgeHub and edgeAgent's metrics endpoints.

Note

The environment variable httpSettings__enabled should not be set to false for built-in metrics to be available for collection.

Environment variables that can be used to disable metrics are listed in the azure/iotedge repo doc.

Available metrics

Metrics contain tags to help identify the nature of the metric being collected. All metrics contain the following tags:

Tag Description
iothub The hub the device is talking to
edge_device The ID of the current device
instance_number A GUID representing the current runtime. On restart, all metrics are reset. This GUID makes it easier to reconcile restarts.

In the Prometheus exposition format, there are four core metric types: counter, gauge, histogram, and summary. For more information about the different metric types, see the Prometheus metric types documentation.

The quantiles provided for the built-in histogram and summary metrics are 0.1, 0.5, 0.9 and 0.99.

The edgeHub module produces the following metrics:

Name Dimensions Description
edgehub_gettwin_total source (operation source)
id (module ID)
Type: counter
Total number of GetTwin calls
edgehub_messages_received_total route_output (output that sent message)
id
Type: counter
Total number of messages received from clients
edgehub_messages_sent_total from (message source)
to (message destination)
from_route_output
to_route_input (message destination input)
priority (message priority to destination)
Type: counter
Total number of messages sent to clients or upstream
to_route_input is empty when to is $upstream
edgehub_reported_properties_total target(update target)
id
Type: counter
Total reported property updates calls
edgehub_message_size_bytes id
Type: summary
Message size from clients
Values may be reported as NaN if no new measurements are reported for a certain period of time (currently 10 minutes); for summary type, corresponding _count and _sum counters are emitted.
edgehub_gettwin_duration_seconds source

to
priority
Type: summary
Time taken to process a message from the queue

id
Type: summary
Time taken to update reported properties
edgehub_direct_method_duration_seconds from (caller)
to (receiver)
Type: summary
Time taken to resolve a direct message

to
Type: counter
Total number of direct messages sent
edgehub_queue_length endpoint (message source)
priority (queue priority)
Type: gauge
Current length of edgeHub's queue for a given priority
edgehub_messages_dropped_total reason (no_route, ttl_expiry)
from
from_route_output
Type: counter
Total number of messages removed because of reason
edgehub_messages_unack_total reason (storage_failure)

edgehub_offline_count_total id Type: counter
Total number of times edgeHub went offline
edgehub_offline_duration_seconds id Type: summary
Time edge hub was offline
edgehub_operation_retry_total id
operation (operation name)
Type: counter
